Isaiah 45:11-13

Complete Jewish Bible

¹¹ Thus says Adonai,
the Holy One of Isra’el, his Maker:
“You ask for signs concerning my children?
You give orders concerning the work of my hands?
¹² I am the one who made the earth!
I created human beings on it!
I — my hands — stretched out the heavens,
and directed all their number.
¹³ I am stirring up Koresh to righteousness,
I am smoothing out all his paths.
He will rebuild my city;
and he will free my exiles,
taking neither ransom nor bribe,”
says Adonai-Tzva’ot.
